Re: New project! The "Red Herring"
Not much visual tonight. Got the washer bottle bracket finished up.
![]() Shows the protrusion above the core support ... you can shut the hood with a 2x4 on top of the support, so I still have a solid inch clearance ![]() ![]() Other than that, spent far more time than I would have liked massaging the dash around the ignition switch to make the bezel sit flat, and then filing in the keyways to keep it from spinning. Also, made a decision about the fuel tank. I'm going to weld a piece of 1-5/8" ID tubing into the frame (and a boxing plate on the inside) to allow the filler hose to pass through and hit the tank at the right angle. It makes everything back there a lot neater. Just got the steel in today, maybe will get a chance to take a whack at it on Thursday (I have a short day at work).
